I'm relatively new to RenPy, been putting off learning it in depth, but I am incentivized to try it out. I found this awesome thing called "[Renpy Portrait System](https://aether.revasser.net/misc/renpy-portraitsysv2/)". It worked without a hitch, but I got cocky and thought "I could make my own animation function in ...

EDIT: I just realized that the "image asset" stuff wasn't really necessary. You can disregard that as from what I can tell, deleting it from the script file does absolutely nothing either way.

Yes, you'd need to make a custom version of screen choice. Replace the item's action with one that changes the caption and starts a timer. Then have the timer run the item's original action. It's a non-trivial thing to do unless you are familiar with screens and actions.

It doesn’t sound like any customization is needed from the description, unless I’m missing something.

I may have poorly worded it I don't just want text to appear on the screen.

so basically quickly swapping out images? ie: have all options in the game be image buttons, have the menu disappear replaced with an image that looks otherwise identical to the menu with the text, have it on say a half second delay and then jump to the necessary label?

The image should be the whole current render +the menu options overlapped, yes, and then jumps to a normal render; I've seen it done like that a couple of times and I guess rendering it is faster than coding a whole edge case for a single instance

you can use imagebutton where when you use "clicked" it changes the imagebutton to the image you want it to be. However if you are talking about with menu: maybe you can use "clicked" there as well? I am unsure if it would work though.

In theory, I don't see why not... You can certainly set up an animated image to run at a rate that changes according to the value of a specific variable, so using one for the dialogue box should just be a case of assigning that animation rather than a fixed, single image. You'd want to set the `pause` between frames t...

This makes sense to me. You animate it like you for blinking eyes.

Same here, but it got me thinking that one could set a baseline range of blink rates to choose from, but add a variable to increase the increase the rate according to stress. You could go from, say, every 6 / 9 / 12 seconds, to every 2 / 3 / 4 seconds (for example) just by altering the variable from 1 to 3.

Hey, you can do it like this `"{alpha=*0.5}This text is half as opaque as the default.{/alpha}"` `Here's the corresponding entry in the renpy documentation` [`https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/text.html#text-tag-alpha`](https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/text.html#text-tag-alpha)
